MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Ford Focus (NK51 WSD) between January 2006 and February 2016.

The record contains 11 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 20 February 2016 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (16 issues), Brakes (11 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (8 issues), Suspension (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 27 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Bonnet cannot be secured in the closed position (8.4.1)”; “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover excessively damaged so that it no longer prevents the ingress”; “Exhaust emissions carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle excessive (7.3.D.3)”.
